Rayman Legends (Wii U): COMPLETED!
By “completed”, I of course mean, I’ve got to the end credits. See. I don’t have all 700 teensies, or a million lums, or have done all the Origin levels (I haven’t even unlocked most of them) or opened Living Dead Party, but I’ve completed the story. I played about 60% of the game in co-op with my daughter, which was fun. She generally took on the role of Murfy for those levels where he’s a part, and she did …

I haven’t been to a proper games show since, ooh, 2001? 2002? Whenever it was I went to ECTS, anyway. Ah, ECTS. Games show for people who like Gran Turismo 3 and steering wheels, and not much else. Good times. What did I think of the games? Well, a quick run through: New Super Mario Bros U (Wii U) Awesome. Going to be excellent playing this with my daughter on the screen. Sure, it’s mostly more of the same as …

The 2010 Gaming Expenditure Horror
I’ve been tracking which games I play, on my Gaming Diary, for 6 years now. It’s helped me realise how many different games I play, and how many I complete. This year, however, I’ve additionally started tracking the games I buy, and how much I paid for them – the aim being to scare myself into how much I spend on gaming. Thing is, just knowing that it’s logged has actually made me more frugal with my spending. Not only …

Rayman Raving Rabbids (Wii): COMPLETED!
Two days and two Wii titles finished! This one feels like the first “proper” game on the Wii that I’ve completed, however. So there was more dancing, shooting, warthog racing, marbles-in-the-brain maze tilting, pulling worms from teeth, barrel bowling (with rabbids as pins), and Super Bunny launching. Amongst other things, anyway. Overall, I’ve only skipped two mini-games (you only need to do three of the four each day to progress, but I’ve done 4 each day bar two), so I …
Rayman Raving Rabbids (Wii)
And so the games get more bizarre. Today, I had to fall from the sky, through a load of smoke rings, as quickly as possible. Then I had to play some kind of four-player curling, slap some bunnies that were singing out of tune, and do some more dancing. I’m now 72% complete on the game, and it looks like I have four “days” of events left.
Rayman Raving Rabbids (Wii)
This game is completely insane. During today’s play, I raced around on the back of a warthog, milked a cow, made rabbits run into cacti, played What’s the Time, Mr. Wolf?, collected pigs as a bat, run round a graveyard shooting plungers at things, danced to “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” whilst dressed as a goth, and pounded a bunny’s head in with a hammer. As you do. It’s a great game, mainly because it is so completely, utterly, nuts.
Rayman DS
I don’t know why, but I picked this up to play again this evening. It’s awful. And I hate it. I must like self-harm or something, I suppose. Anyway, I finished off a few levels, only to find I can’t go any further as I need more Lums. “You need 6735472 more Super Happy Seeds of Power to progress!” is one of my least favourite game mechanics, so you can imagine my joy that I had to go back and …
Rayman DS
What a poor game. The pre-PS1-era visuals don’t exactly help, but the collision detection, pop-up, clipping, low quality textures and awful camera basically kill it. That, and the fact it was almost half an hour between save points – not good for a handheld game really, is it? I set about the first level – well, the first bit before the first level and the first level itself. I knew Rayman DS was just a port, but I didn’t realise …
Child of Light (Wii U): COMPLETED!
If there’s one negative thing to say about Child of Light, it’s the diabolical dialogue. All of the conversations and narration take the form of terrible rhyming couplets. Rhyming couplets that are forced, contrived, often don’t rhyme, and very rarely even scan. At first it feels clever and cute, but after a few minutes you’d rather everyone just spoke properly and it grates for the next twelve or so hours until it’s complete. Which, yes, it is complete. Thankfully, there’s …
